Around the world, public authorities from all levels of government increasingly turn to Citizens' Councils, Assemblies, Juries, Panels and other representative deliberative processes to tackle complex policy problems. They convene groups of people representing a wide cross-section of society for at least one full day – and often much longer – to learn, deliberate, and develop collective recommendations that consider the complexities and compromises required for solving multifaceted public issues.
This "deliberative wave" has been building since the 1980s, gaining momentum since around 2010. Germany has been at the forefront of this trend and is currently engaging in a national assembly sponsored by the German Bundestag on "Germany’s role in the world".
This webinar will look at the international perspective and discuss challenges and opportunities of deliberative approaches based on examples from Canada and Belgium.
The event language will be English.
Please register for this event using the registration form.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Kind regards
Your OECD Berlin Team
